Spotify … Short Targets

February 10, 2026 By in Retail Investor, SPOT, Wyckoff, ZeroHedge 2 Comments

Dip, or Squeeze?

Spotify’s earnings release, coincided with a (supposedly) massive ‘retail’ buying spree, link here.

The article says it’s retail causing the launch; comment’s section, says otherwise.

From a Wyckoff analysis perspective, it doesn’t matter who’s doing the buying or why.

What matters, is what the market is saying about itself.

Spotify SPOT, Daily

As this link says, there’s not much sold short … less than 3% of float.

On The Spot

February 9, 2026 By in SPOT

Before The Open

Spotify releases earnings tomorrow, before the bell.

From all-time highs of 785, June 27th last year, to today, SPOT is down -47.15%.

The monthly chart at left, shows we’re at a potential support level (not advice, not a recommendation).

Depending on how the market responds, we’ll discuss potential trades at that time.

DoorDash, Rally into Earnings?

February 7, 2026 By in AMZN, BALL, CPAY, DASH, DASH-26-01, DVA, ORLY, Wyckoff

‘Spring’ Position

DoorDash, has been traded once to the short side this year: DASH-26-01.

That trade was closed out (covered) on January 12th, profit of 7.58%.

Note, from the link above, after January 7th, and the ‘test’, price action began an immediate decline, to now.

An error on the trade, was not maintaining the position, and closing out this past Friday 🙂

At this point, we’ve penetrated support, now in Wyckoff ‘spring’ position.

Spring position does not guarantee a rally. It just means the market may attempt to move higher and take out any shorts late to the party (not advice, not a recommendation).

DoorDash DASH, Daily

Earnings release, February 18th, after the close.

As we’ve seen with the Amazon and O’Reilly collapse, Ball Corp., CorPay Inc., DaVita HealthCare launch (and others), response to earnings are all over the map.

There’s no telling what’s going to happen with earnings and DASH (not advice, not a recommendation).

At The Edge …

February 6, 2026 By in Artificial Intelligence, Semiconductors, SOXX, TXN, TXN-26-02, TXN-26-03 1 Comment

Stretched, at All-Time Highs

We’re looking for The Danger Point®, where the risk (of being wrong) is least (not advice, not a recommendation).

This method applies to going long as well as short:

Buy or sell (short) at the edge.

Looking at the chart of Texas Instruments, you’ll have to judge for yourself if we’re at that edge.

Texas Instruments TXN, Daily Close (12:37 p.m., EST)

Using the data from yesterday’s update, link here, we’re at a point that could get very interesting.

TXN … Dotcom Then, A.I., Now

February 5, 2026 By in Artificial Intelligence, Michael Bordenaro, Semiconductors, SOXX, TXN, TXN-26-02 2 Comments

Once, in a Generation

Michael Bordenaro’s latest update, had this in the comment section (paraphrasing):

‘It’s likely, few people realize how far this is going to go, and how long it’s going to last.’

With that said, we’ll look at a once-in-a-generation event, Texas Instruments.

Not since the height of the dot-com mania, has there been a repeat of the indicator shown below.

Texas Instruments TXN, Monthly

Two massive Force Index spikes, a generation apart.

In the dotcom mania, the spike was not the top; that came a month later.

For the A.I. mania, TXN posted its spike last month (not advice, not a recommendation).

TE Connectivity … Breakdown

February 4, 2026 By in Artificial Intelligence, TEL, TEL-26-01

Massive Wedge Throw-Over

The last update on TEL, was over six months ago, link here.

The chart in that update showed a massive long-term wedge.

At the time, price action was right at the upper boundary.

What came next, was an apparent ‘throw-over’ that’s lasted six months (not advice, not recommendation).

If price action declines decisively back into the wedge, we’ll discuss measured move(s) at that time.

O’Rilley Earnings …

February 3, 2026 By in ORLY, Spring-to-Up-Thrust

After Hours, Tomorrow

ORLY, reports tomorrow, after-hours.

Since we got a ‘spring’ by penetrating support, it’s possible, price action will resolve itself by posting an up-thrust (not advice, not a recommendation).

Palantir … After Hours

February 2, 2026 By in Artificial Intelligence, PLTR

Straight into Resistance

Palantir released earnings after the bell, link here.

The magenta line shows how the ‘good news’ is being received.

As of this post (6:40 p.m., EST) price action is in a narrow range, hitting the underside of resistance, near a downtrend line (not advice, not a recommendation).

Corning’s Glass Ceiling

February 1, 2026 By in Artificial Intelligence, GLW, GLW-26-01

Last Gasp?

If you believe the financial press, link here, then we’re in the clear for Corning as it’s part of the A.I. mania.

Throw in some analyst ‘buy’ ratings and it’s good to go. 🙂

If we actually look at the truth, the price action itself, it may be telling us something different (not advice, not a recommendation).

Corning GLW, Monthly

All-time highs, link here.

The long-term perspective shows us it took nearly a generation for GLW to get back to ‘dotcom’ levels.

In fact, the news release in the first link above, resulted in the gap-higher straight into decades long resistance.

Now, you have to ask yourself: “Do you feel lucky?”

Is GLW, somehow going to miraculously push through (and hold) that resistance of many years, on just one attempt?

In the markets, anything can happen.

Next up and depending on price action, we’ll look at the daily chart.
